iOS: Saved Verses / Bookmarks

Updated 1 week ago by Zizoh Anto

When you discover a Bible passage, you know you’ll want to return to again, save it. You can add labels to the passages to make them easier to find. This includes verses you want to remember, verses you want to have with you for a Bible study meeting, and passages you use in a sermon.

When you save a verse, it is only saved in the Bible version you currently have selected.
